After Action Report
In a track meet, the Timberwolves pulled away from the Mavericks 117-102. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
